  • Title: [A case of bringing along Mediterranean ticks Ixodes (Ixodes) festai Rondelli, 1926 (Acari: Ixodida: Ixodidae) to Poland by migrating birds].
    Author: Siuda K, Szymański S.
    Journal: Wiad Parazytol; 1991; 37(1):25-9. PubMed ID: 1823490.
    Abstract:
    A partly fed female of I. festai was collected from Turdus merula L. caught in Hel Peninsula (Southern Coast of Baltic Sea). This species (known only as females) is a parasite of birds, and inhabits western part of the Mediterranean area. I. festai is a second species after Hyalomma marginatum which probably every spring is transferred by migratory bird into territory of Poland. This finding is the first recorded case of transfer of I. festai to Poland, therefore the description of female is given.
